Divide the mixture evenly between two greased and base-lined 20cm
(8in) sandwich tins and level the surface.

Bake in a preheated oven at 180C / 350F / gas mark 4 for about 25
minutes, or until well-risen and just firm to touch. Turn out and
leave to cool on a wire rack.

For the icing, place the squares of chocolate and St Ivel Golden

stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.

Add the icing sugar and milk or single cream and beat thoroughly,
until smooth. Leave to cool, then cover and chill until the icing has
thickened enough to hold its shape.

Sandwich the cakes together with the whipped cream, then spread the
icing all over the top and sides of the cake. Decorate with chocolate
curls or grated chocolate. Serve immediately in slices.
